Tonight is homecoming and i don't want to miss it because of a fever! I had a fever yesterday, too, and sweated it off, but now its back. Ahh! Whats the best, fastest way to get rid of it?

200 mg of ibuprofen every 6 hours. you have to understand that a fever is a secondary feature and there is usually an underlying problem that is causing your body to react with a fever. fevers are the body's way of "cooking" a germ or bacteria to death. so although you may be able to drop your fever with motrin or aleve, it most likely won't remain low and at a certain point, even those won't work.

I would want you to be more concerned about what's causing the fever in the first place and I wouldn't want you to transmit any viral or bacterial infections to anyone else. Be smart. Stay home. Get well.

Hi, well you could try an aspirin (strong one). In bed under the covers sweating it all off is a good choice too. Good luck and hope you get better
